Complicated Jaguars WR rotation in a TE-heavy scheme
Brian Thomas wasn't traded, but the Jaguars seemed hellbent on changing their style of offense this year by spending their lone 2nd-round pick on an old blocking-only tight end in Nate Boerkircher. With TE Brenton Strange already established, the only way to get their top investment onto the field is by the 2- and 3-TE sets taking the league by storm. That comes at the expense of WR snaps and targets, and it's unclear who even would be playing in 2-WR sets between Thomas, Parker Washington, Jakobi Meyers, and Travis Hunter. I'd guess it's Thomas and Meyers, but Washington closed the season strongly. This trio was the WR26, WR40, and WR48 on a per-game basis last year. It only became more complicated.
